Thinking of a special Marx-related item you would like to buy, sell, or trade? Well check out the Marketplace to see what's available and list your own items. This service is offered free of charge to all Marxists.

Innocent Bystander

Gary Sassaman is a Marx fan with a difference, and the difference is that he also publishes his own comic, Innocent Bystander. And guess what Marx Fans...IB #3 is entirely devoted to The Marx Brothers! I love this comic, and think you will too. Take a look at some scans from the comic, as well as my review, by visiting Innocent Bystander.

The Freedonia Gazette

This magazine contains a plethora of entertaining information for fans of the Marx Brothers. It is published irregularly by Paul Wesolowski, who has worked on a number of Marx Brothers projects in the past. Most recently, Paul was consulted during the production of Family Portrait: The Marx Brothers, which was a documentary produced for American Movie Classics. This documentary first aired on AMC in October 1995. Judging by its excellent quality, I am sure it will be repeated often.

For general information about the gazette and subscriptions thereto, click on The Freedonia Gazette -- Introduction. If you would like information on available back issues of this splendid publication, as well as a huge list of other Marx-related merchandise Paul is offering for sale, check out The Freedonia Gazette -- Back Issues. If you decide to get in touch with Paul, I'd appreciate it if you'd tell him how you heard about his publication.

Note to current subscribers: Paul maintains a list of subscribers' email addresses. If you are a subscriber and would like to get on his list, contact Paul at tfg@cheerful.com.
